2007 survey part three-outings

ok...
here's the result for 2007 survey results--- outings section

section 1: Outings

top 5 outings
1. Leo's sisters' bday---19
2. Xianhao's bday trip aka east coast cum funfair trip---14
3. Kbox competition---10
4. Shopping @ bugis---7
5.relaxation day @ amk nature mac---4

Section 1.1 Kbox trips

1. location preferred: cck (but it is closed le....)
2. time slot preferred: Wy,Xyg n Xy--- k lunch; Xh--- 2-7pm...
3. how often? : Xh--- once 2mths; Xyg n Xy--- once 3 mths; Wy--- once 6-12 mths
4. how informed?: all---well informed enough; Xy--- can improved a bit...
5. Suggestions:
Xh--- More Creative theme for competition and maybe more chances for everyone of us to find that killer song that will wow everyone whenever we sing that song.
Xyg--- I think we should sing more fast songs. Cos sometimes I’m bored with too many slow songs. Haha.
Wy--- No
Xy--- Try not to be late for meetings? We meet earlier…

Section 1.1.1 Kbox competition

1. How do you find the competition?
Xh---Fun. Exciting. Challenging.
Xyg--- It is not a bad idea as it can help us improve our singing by hearing the opinions of others. Generally good but can be stressful when we hear negative commands or reactions during the course of singing.
Wy---very well organize
Xy---Interesting and entertaining…

2. Is it too stressful?
Xh---A bit of stress is good, will make u go practice that song until u sing very well. But I wouldn’t say it is really stressful.
Xyg---Personally I think it is. Cos I’m particular about how well I sing and whether it turns out well.
Wy---Ya
Xy---A bit

2. Is it difficult to plan all the songs or the categories?
Xh---Yes, of coz its difficult. That’s why everyone has to contribute to let us all have a good singing experience.
Xyg---For the planning of songs, it’s not too difficult. But if it’s for strange categories like unfamiliar songs, I have problem choosing it. And sometimes songs I want to sing were taken up by others. For the categories, it’s still not too bad so far. But for future competitions, we may need to reuse the themes.
Wy---I didn’t do the planning. Not much prob with coming up with a list
Xy---Yes. Need to search and listen.

3. Do you want it to be continued?
Xh,Xyg,Xy--- yes… Wy---no…
Xyg--- Though it’s stressful but after sometime please. I still want to enjoy Kbox and not too stressed up by it, as preparation need to be done.
Xy: once in a while.

4. Any suggestions to improve the competition?
Xh---Everyone be more spontaneous and really do take the time to go and practice. Haha. Treat it seriously.
Xyg---I think we need to listen to the person who is singing and avoid being distracted, so as to ensure the fair judgment of marks. I think we can also enact the real competition i.e. each of us giving commands for the singing straight after the song. This can be done for major categories like pair singing etc.
Wy---½ of the session competition, ½ of it free style. Haha..
Xy---Well… less catergories so have more time to sing the songs I like

Section 1.1.2 Kbox sessions

1. How do you find the session?
Xh---Good.
Xyg---Fabulous! Though the service of the people can be annoying. But I really enjoyed.
Wy n Xy--- fun

2. Any suggestions you might want to add?
Xh---Nope. But I have a goal for everyone though. Hope each of us (including me) will be able to find one killer song in the year 2008.
Xyg---For the song selection part, I think if we want to push up songs, we need to ask first. It is to avoid arguments and ensure fairness. For each person, maybe a quota of like 4 songs should be imposed each time.
Wy---more group songs, or partner songs
Xy---2 songs each n dun move up n down… distracting…

Section 1.2 other trips

1.Which other trips do you like most? (You may choose more than one.)
Xh---Bdae celebrations. Shopping trip. Dining sessions.
Xyg---My birthday outing (2007), Kbox, East Coast trip, Relaxation day @ amk nature theme MAC, Shopping trips to Vivo, Bugis, Marina Square, Orchard etc.
Wy---Dessert Trip, Birthday Outing.
Xy---East coast trip

2.Do you think we should plan more different trips?
All:Yes.
Xyg: I think IKEA trip is not bad for the 1st attempt of something really different.

3.Where do you preferred to go?
Xh---We should have more movie trips. Zhui Xing only went for one movie trip this year. Seriously not enough.
Xyg---I want to try out BBQ. Steamboat and dessert outings also not bad. I prefer somewhere fun. Got things to do. Actually I’m ok with anything as long as it’s feasible.
Wy---HK café, Dessert shops, western dessert shop.
Xy---Bbq, cafes, Japanese restaurants, east coast

4. Which food do you like most?
Xh---Western food. Swensens is good. Pastamania and Hans also not bad.
Xyg---When concerns food, I’m really OK with most food. Seafood is my top favourite.
Wy---Baked Cheese Rice, Chocolate Cake, Chocolate ice-cream, waffles with ice cream, veg crackers, fried rice…………………….
Xy---Hans’, long john silver, kfc…

2007 survey part two- words frm others...

ok... here are the words frm others to...

Xian hao:

This is like award ceremony. But thanks my dear friend! You’ve been wonderful and indispensible in my life. Thanks for making Zhui Xing trips so fun! Without you all, my life will be boring! Thanks for consoling and listening whenever I feel down. Especially in recent events.. thanks! You are so fun and we sure can enjoy more crazy times together. Lastly, Zhui Xing rocks and friends 4ever! Merry Xmas!
~Xin ying

Hi Xianhao,
Duno wad to write here..I am supposed to write something. Haha... I think if there’s a diff between past and now, that would be I confide more things with you now. But blimey, you really are a good listener, but lack exciting vibrant spirit of listening. Haha... But tts fine, really! Coz that’s really a girl thing. Stop being so serious with all things! Stop being so responsible with all things! But I think you better don’t relax, coz almost all the plannings are by you n Xin ying. Haha..So thanks very much for those fantastic plannings. Woo hooo… Merry Xmas!!
~Wenya

Xianhao,
so sorry that I din get to go for a few outings this year. I was busy w tuition and thgs. But I will improve next year. I know that a lot of things happened this year and I m not really of help. So sorry about that. Thanks a lot for being my friend. You must take care ok? I will try and update Zhui xing blogs more often. And thanks a lot for updating the Zhui xing blog! You have done a wonderful job! So all the best for your future endeavors! Rmb Zhui xing will always be there for support!
Finally, I just want to say that you are the root of our group. You are practical and determined to the point of being stubborn sometimes. Just that the roots. Roots are “down-to-earth” and held on tightly to the ground even through wind and rain try to uproot them.
--- Xin yi

Wenya:

Wenya,
This year hasn’t been a really good one for me. I got myself into a lot of problems, work lar, friendship stuff, religion stuff, family stuff. Haiz.
I just wanna say thank you for always being there for me and giving me such useful advices and those comforting words really make the winding and rocky NS journey a lot smoother. Makes me feel that I am actually not alone. All these may mean nothing to you, but they are HUGE to me. So thanks once again and hope u will have a great year ahead.
~Xian hao

Sorry for the last quarrel. Lucky we made up. Can’t wait to start the new study sessions again! We must be more productive next year! You are always my Leo Sis. So don’t worry if we quarrel next time. I guess we will sure make up. Haha. No lah. Of course we must try to xiang qin xiang ai till we old. Thanks for being in Zhui Xing and making my life so wonderful. Life without Zhui Xing outings will be miserable! We everyday contact so I guess that’s all till our next sms or conversation. Merry xmas!
~Xin ying

Well, we got into a big argument sometime this year, I tink. And I want to say I am really glad that we resolved it. I will really hate to lose a friend like you. However, I hope that you can change some of your habits and rmb to tell me thgs earlier. A lot of things happened this year esp during our may exams. I want to thank you for the support during that time. Thanks a lot. It was a difficult time for me and I thanked you for helping me. We had our differences but I hope we can stay as best friends forever. Thanks a lot. ^_^
Finally, I just want to say that you are the flower of our group. You might change constantly but you also add fun into our group. You help us with your advices. Just like the flowers which bring different colors into the tree.
---Xin yi

Xin ying:

Hey,
I think this year might not be a good year for you also. Your family issues always quarrelling and stuff like that. Hope these kinda stuff will lessen next year. I really hope your family will also be accepting to Christianity just like I hope mine will be accepting too. I will be praying for u and your family.
Regarding you and ur boyfriend, hope u guys can communicate better with each other in the future. Best is find something that you both like. Wish you luck.
Always having a smile and put all your problems behind, seldom see you black face during outings although u might have just quarreled with ur family. That’s something really admirable and something I must learn. Haha.
Wish you best of luck in the new year ahead.
~Xian hao

Hi XinYing,
Really funny to write you a letter, coz we are like talking crap everyday! Thanks for being such a great friend, throughout e year! I guess we have to be more demure, sometimes I emphasize its sometimes ONLY! Coz we shud strive to be independent but warm woman! Such a challenge. Too bad I am not a natural optimist. Boo hoo… I wish you a super merry xmas PLUS blissful year ahead. J Grin~
Oh ya…Thanks for being such a fabulous secretary! I appreciate all those wonderful outings planned by you & Xianhao..
~Wen ya

Hey, we din get to spend as much time as we used to be when we were in yj this year. However, I want to thank you for all your support this year and the years before. We might not see each other as frequently as we used to be but you are still able to pass me encouragements and helped me in times of difficulties. I want to thank you for being such a good friend. And I hope we will remain as best friends forever? A lot of thing happened this year and I am sorry to be not of much help. I will strive to be a better friend. I also want to thank you for accompanying me shopping for shoes, jacket and bag. Thanks you so much! ^_^
Finally, I just want to say that you are the stem in our group. You help to keep contact with us and hold our group together. Just like a stem of a tree. Stem holds the tree “upright” and transport “minerals and water” to other parts of the tree.
~Xin yi

Xinyi:

Xinyi,
I understand that your families’ financial status not that good. And from your conversations, I realize a lot of problems also, though u might already have been used to it but I personally think it is quite unhealthy. I hope u will have better luck dealing with all these in the future.
All these family stuff may leave you with every little time for us. But I hope u do make an effort to come more often to our outings. I read ur blog and some entries are a bit disturbing. U feel like u are a spare tyre of our group, well, I think that feeling might have arise because you leave very little time for ur frens to start off with.
And all I will like to say is, not matter how little time u have with us. U are always a Zhui Xing Member. Not a spare tyre to us. Got it??
Next year, hope to see more of u!!!! Jiayou!!!!
~Xian hao


Hey Xinyi, Merry Xmas! Sorry for not performing a good job of a secretary this year, causing you to know outings last min. Very frustrating right? I’ll try to improve on my efficiency next year! Thanks for your understanding. Don’t feel neglected k? cos everybody in Zhui Xing is important. Try to come for every outing k? It’s less fun without you. Thanks for lending me the fruit basket for so long too! Let’s go out and shop for cheap bargains soon! Friends 4ever!
P.S. We can makeover together this 21st birthday! J
~Xin ying

Hi Xinyi,
Haha.. wana me to write longer messages. I really cant concentrate, coz was watching Mei Wei Guan Xi, my latest most love drama by Zai Zai! So distracting. Haha.. Actually wad I wana say to you, all written in my kawaii xmas bookmark. So you take a look in it when you receive on Xmas J
Thanks for all the wonderful memories & support throughout the good and bad times in 2007! (Esp in sch~) Let’s strive hard to be really happy & successful. I wish you happiness & smiles always.
Oh ya.. Stop going missing for outings~ I really feel a need to see you MORE frequently for outings! Stop being so stressed & guai. Be flexible~
Oh ya.. for 2008 don’t include throw stick in stories anymore. Coz I am not a throw stick kind of girl. Passed that age. Haha..
~Wen ya
